## Detailed Description

Unicode Security and Spoofing Detection, C API.

This class, based on Unicode Technical Report #36 and Unicode Technical Standard #39, has two main functions:

1. Checking whether two strings are visually confusable with each other, such as "Harvest" and "Ηarvest", where the second string starts with the Greek capital letter Eta.
2. Checking whether an individual string is likely to be an attempt at confusing the reader (spoof detection), such as "paypal" with some Latin characters substituted with Cyrillic look-alikes.

Although originally designed as a method for flagging suspicious identifier strings such as URLs, `USpoofChecker` has a number of other practical use cases, such as preventing attempts to evade bad-word content filters.

The functions of this class are exposed as C API, with a handful of syntactical conveniences for C++.

## Confusables

The following example shows how to use `USpoofChecker` to check for confusability between two strings:

UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
UChar* str1 = (UChar*) u"Harvest";
UChar* str2 = (UChar*) u"\u0397arvest"; // with U+0397 GREEK CAPITAL LETTER ETA
USpoofChecker* sc = uspoof_open(&status);
uspoof_setChecks(sc, USPOOF_CONFUSABLE, &status);
int32_t bitmask = uspoof_areConfusable(sc, str1, -1, str2, -1, &status);
UBool result = bitmask != 0;
// areConfusable: 1 (status: U_ZERO_ERROR)
printf("areConfusable: %d (status: %s)\n", result, u_errorName(status));
uspoof_close(sc);

The call to uspoof_open creates a `USpoofChecker` object; the call to uspoof_setChecks enables confusable checking and disables all other checks; the call to uspoof_areConfusable performs the confusability test; and the following line extracts the result out of the return value. For best performance, the instance should be created once (e.g., upon application startup), and the efficient uspoof_areConfusable method can be used at runtime.

The type LocalUSpoofCheckerPointer is exposed for C++ programmers. It will automatically call uspoof_close when the object goes out of scope:

UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
LocalUSpoofCheckerPointer sc(uspoof_open(&status));
uspoof_setChecks(sc.getAlias(), USPOOF_CONFUSABLE, &status);
// ...

UTS 39 defines two strings to be confusable if they map to the same skeleton string. A skeleton can be thought of as a "hash code". uspoof_getSkeleton computes the skeleton for a particular string, so the following snippet is equivalent to the example above:

UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
UChar* str1 = (UChar*) u"Harvest";
UChar* str2 = (UChar*) u"\u0397arvest"; // with U+0397 GREEK CAPITAL LETTER ETA
USpoofChecker* sc = uspoof_open(&status);
uspoof_setChecks(sc, USPOOF_CONFUSABLE, &status);
// Get skeleton 1
int32_t skel1Len = uspoof_getSkeleton(sc, 0, str1, -1, NULL, 0, &status);
UChar* skel1 = (UChar*) malloc(++skel1Len * sizeof(UChar));
status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
uspoof_getSkeleton(sc, 0, str1, -1, skel1, skel1Len, &status);
// Get skeleton 2
int32_t skel2Len = uspoof_getSkeleton(sc, 0, str2, -1, NULL, 0, &status);
UChar* skel2 = (UChar*) malloc(++skel2Len * sizeof(UChar));
status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
uspoof_getSkeleton(sc, 0, str2, -1, skel2, skel2Len, &status);
// Are the skeletons the same?
UBool result = u_strcmp(skel1, skel2) == 0;
// areConfusable: 1 (status: U_ZERO_ERROR)
printf("areConfusable: %d (status: %s)\n", result, u_errorName(status));
uspoof_close(sc);
free(skel1);
free(skel2);

If you need to check if a string is confusable with any string in a dictionary of many strings, rather than calling uspoof_areConfusable many times in a loop, uspoof_getSkeleton can be used instead, as shown below:

UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
#define DICTIONARY_LENGTH 2
UChar* dictionary[DICTIONARY_LENGTH] = { (UChar*) u"lorem", (UChar*) u"ipsum" };
UChar* skeletons[DICTIONARY_LENGTH];
UChar* str = (UChar*) u"1orern";
// Setup:
USpoofChecker* sc = uspoof_open(&status);
uspoof_setChecks(sc, USPOOF_CONFUSABLE, &status);
for (size_t i=0; i<DICTIONARY_LENGTH; i++) {
UChar* word = dictionary[i];
int32_t len = uspoof_getSkeleton(sc, 0, word, -1, NULL, 0, &status);
skeletons[i] = (UChar*) malloc(++len * sizeof(UChar));
status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
uspoof_getSkeleton(sc, 0, word, -1, skeletons[i], len, &status);
}
// Live Check:
{
int32_t len = uspoof_getSkeleton(sc, 0, str, -1, NULL, 0, &status);
UChar* skel = (UChar*) malloc(++len * sizeof(UChar));
status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
uspoof_getSkeleton(sc, 0, str, -1, skel, len, &status);
UBool result = false;
for (size_t i=0; i<DICTIONARY_LENGTH; i++) {
result = u_strcmp(skel, skeletons[i]) == 0;
if (result == true) { break; }
}
// Has confusable in dictionary: 1 (status: U_ZERO_ERROR)
printf("Has confusable in dictionary: %d (status: %s)\n", result, u_errorName(status));
free(skel);
}
for (size_t i=0; i<DICTIONARY_LENGTH; i++) {
free(skeletons[i]);
}
uspoof_close(sc);

Note: Since the Unicode confusables mapping table is frequently updated, confusable skeletons are not guaranteed to be the same between ICU releases. We therefore recommend that you always compute confusable skeletons at runtime and do not rely on creating a permanent, or difficult to update, database of skeletons.

## Spoof Detection

The following snippet shows a minimal example of using `USpoofChecker` to perform spoof detection on a string:

UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
UChar* str = (UChar*) u"p\u0430ypal"; // with U+0430 CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER A
// Get the default set of allowable characters:
USet* allowed = uset_openEmpty();
uset_addAll(allowed, uspoof_getRecommendedSet(&status));
uset_addAll(allowed, uspoof_getInclusionSet(&status));
USpoofChecker* sc = uspoof_open(&status);
uspoof_setAllowedChars(sc, allowed, &status);
uspoof_setRestrictionLevel(sc, USPOOF_MODERATELY_RESTRICTIVE);
int32_t bitmask = uspoof_check(sc, str, -1, NULL, &status);
UBool result = bitmask != 0;
// fails checks: 1 (status: U_ZERO_ERROR)
printf("fails checks: %d (status: %s)\n", result, u_errorName(status));
uspoof_close(sc);
uset_close(allowed);

As in the case for confusability checking, it is good practice to create one `USpoofChecker` instance at startup, and call the cheaper uspoof_check online. We specify the set of allowed characters to be those with type RECOMMENDED or INCLUSION, according to the recommendation in UTS 39.

In addition to uspoof_check, the function uspoof_checkUTF8 is exposed for UTF8-encoded char* strings, and uspoof_checkUnicodeString is exposed for C++ programmers.

If the USPOOF_AUX_INFO check is enabled, a limited amount of information on why a string failed the checks is available in the returned bitmask. For complete information, use the uspoof_check2 class of functions with a USpoofCheckResult parameter:

UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
UChar* str = (UChar*) u"p\u0430ypal"; // with U+0430 CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER A
// Get the default set of allowable characters:
USet* allowed = uset_openEmpty();
uset_addAll(allowed, uspoof_getRecommendedSet(&status));
uset_addAll(allowed, uspoof_getInclusionSet(&status));
USpoofChecker* sc = uspoof_open(&status);
uspoof_setAllowedChars(sc, allowed, &status);
uspoof_setRestrictionLevel(sc, USPOOF_MODERATELY_RESTRICTIVE);
USpoofCheckResult* checkResult = uspoof_openCheckResult(&status);
int32_t bitmask = uspoof_check2(sc, str, -1, checkResult, &status);
int32_t failures1 = bitmask;
int32_t failures2 = uspoof_getCheckResultChecks(checkResult, &status);
assert(failures1 == failures2);
// checks that failed: 0x00000010 (status: U_ZERO_ERROR)
printf("checks that failed: %#010x (status: %s)\n", failures1, u_errorName(status));
// Cleanup:
uspoof_close(sc);
uset_close(allowed);
uspoof_closeCheckResult(checkResult);

C++ users can take advantage of a few syntactical conveniences. The following snippet is functionally equivalent to the one above:

UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
UnicodeString str((UChar*) u"p\u0430ypal"); // with U+0430 CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER A
// Get the default set of allowable characters:
UnicodeSet allowed;
allowed.addAll(*uspoof_getRecommendedUnicodeSet(&status));
allowed.addAll(*uspoof_getInclusionUnicodeSet(&status));
LocalUSpoofCheckerPointer sc(uspoof_open(&status));
uspoof_setAllowedChars(sc.getAlias(), allowed.toUSet(), &status);
uspoof_setRestrictionLevel(sc.getAlias(), USPOOF_MODERATELY_RESTRICTIVE);
LocalUSpoofCheckResultPointer checkResult(uspoof_openCheckResult(&status));
int32_t bitmask = uspoof_check2UnicodeString(sc.getAlias(), str, checkResult.getAlias(), &status);
int32_t failures1 = bitmask;
int32_t failures2 = uspoof_getCheckResultChecks(checkResult.getAlias(), &status);
assert(failures1 == failures2);
// checks that failed: 0x00000010 (status: U_ZERO_ERROR)
printf("checks that failed: %#010x (status: %s)\n", failures1, u_errorName(status));
// Explicit cleanup not necessary.

The return value is a bitmask of the checks that failed. In this case, there was one check that failed: USPOOF_RESTRICTION_LEVEL, corresponding to the fifth bit (16). The possible checks are:

- `RESTRICTION_LEVEL`: flags strings that violate the Restriction Level test as specified in UTS 39; in most cases, this means flagging strings that contain characters from multiple different scripts.
- `INVISIBLE`: flags strings that contain invisible characters, such as zero-width spaces, or character sequences that are likely not to display, such as multiple occurrences of the same non-spacing mark.
- `CHAR_LIMIT`: flags strings that contain characters outside of a specified set of acceptable characters. See uspoof_setAllowedChars and uspoof_setAllowedLocales.
- `MIXED_NUMBERS`: flags strings that contain digits from multiple different numbering systems.

These checks can be enabled independently of each other. For example, if you were interested in checking for only the INVISIBLE and MIXED_NUMBERS conditions, you could do:

UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
UChar* str = (UChar*) u"8\u09EA"; // 8 mixed with U+09EA BENGALI DIGIT FOUR
USpoofChecker* sc = uspoof_open(&status);
uspoof_setChecks(sc, USPOOF_INVISIBLE | USPOOF_MIXED_NUMBERS, &status);
int32_t bitmask = uspoof_check2(sc, str, -1, NULL, &status);
UBool result = bitmask != 0;
// fails checks: 1 (status: U_ZERO_ERROR)
printf("fails checks: %d (status: %s)\n", result, u_errorName(status));
uspoof_close(sc);

Here is an example in C++ showing how to compute the restriction level of a string:

UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
UnicodeString str((UChar*) u"p\u0430ypal"); // with U+0430 CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER A
// Get the default set of allowable characters:
UnicodeSet allowed;
allowed.addAll(*uspoof_getRecommendedUnicodeSet(&status));
allowed.addAll(*uspoof_getInclusionUnicodeSet(&status));
LocalUSpoofCheckerPointer sc(uspoof_open(&status));
uspoof_setAllowedChars(sc.getAlias(), allowed.toUSet(), &status);
uspoof_setRestrictionLevel(sc.getAlias(), USPOOF_MODERATELY_RESTRICTIVE);
uspoof_setChecks(sc.getAlias(), USPOOF_RESTRICTION_LEVEL | USPOOF_AUX_INFO, &status);
LocalUSpoofCheckResultPointer checkResult(uspoof_openCheckResult(&status));
int32_t bitmask = uspoof_check2UnicodeString(sc.getAlias(), str, checkResult.getAlias(), &status);
URestrictionLevel restrictionLevel = uspoof_getCheckResultRestrictionLevel(checkResult.getAlias(), &status);
// Since USPOOF_AUX_INFO was enabled, the restriction level is also available in the upper bits of the bitmask:
assert((restrictionLevel & bitmask) == restrictionLevel);
// Restriction level: 0x50000000 (status: U_ZERO_ERROR)
printf("Restriction level: %#010x (status: %s)\n", restrictionLevel, u_errorName(status));

The code '0x50000000' corresponds to the restriction level USPOOF_MINIMALLY_RESTRICTIVE. Since USPOOF_MINIMALLY_RESTRICTIVE is weaker than USPOOF_MODERATELY_RESTRICTIVE, the string fails the check.

Note: The Restriction Level is the most powerful of the checks. The full logic is documented in UTS 39, but the basic idea is that strings are restricted to contain characters from only a single script, except that most scripts are allowed to have Latin characters interspersed. Although the default restriction level is `HIGHLY_RESTRICTIVE`, it is recommended that users set their restriction level to `MODERATELY_RESTRICTIVE`, which allows Latin mixed with all other scripts except Cyrillic, Greek, and Cherokee, with which it is often confusable. For more details on the levels, see UTS 39 or URestrictionLevel. The Restriction Level test is aware of the set of allowed characters set in uspoof_setAllowedChars. Note that characters which have script code COMMON or INHERITED, such as numbers and punctuation, are ignored when computing whether a string has multiple scripts.

## Additional Information

A `USpoofChecker` instance may be used repeatedly to perform checks on any number of identifiers.

Thread Safety: The test functions for checking a single identifier, or for testing whether two identifiers are possible confusable, are thread safe. They may called concurrently, from multiple threads, using the same USpoofChecker instance.

More generally, the standard ICU thread safety rules apply: functions that take a const USpoofChecker parameter are thread safe. Those that take a non-const USpoofChecker are not thread safe..

enum USpoofChecks

Enum for the kinds of checks that USpoofChecker can perform.

These enum values are used both to select the set of checks that will be performed, and to report results from the check function.

Stable:
  ICU 4.2

Enumerator
USPOOF_SINGLE_SCRIPT_CONFUSABLE | When performing the two-string uspoof_areConfusable test, this flag in the return value indicates that the two strings are visually confusable and that they are from the same script, according to UTS 39 section 4. See also uspoof_areConfusable Stable: ICU 4.2
USPOOF_MIXED_SCRIPT_CONFUSABLE | When performing the two-string uspoof_areConfusable test, this flag in the return value indicates that the two strings are visually confusable and that they are not from the same script, according to UTS 39 section 4. See also uspoof_areConfusable Stable: ICU 4.2
USPOOF_WHOLE_SCRIPT_CONFUSABLE | When performing the two-string uspoof_areConfusable test, this flag in the return value indicates that the two strings are visually confusable and that they are not from the same script but both of them are single-script strings, according to UTS 39 section 4. See also uspoof_areConfusable Stable: ICU 4.2
USPOOF_CONFUSABLE | Enable this flag in uspoof_setChecks to turn on all types of confusables. You may set the checks to some subset of SINGLE_SCRIPT_CONFUSABLE, MIXED_SCRIPT_CONFUSABLE, or WHOLE_SCRIPT_CONFUSABLE to make uspoof_areConfusable return only those types of confusables. See also uspoof_areConfusable uspoof_getSkeleton Stable: ICU 58
USPOOF_ANY_CASE | This flag is deprecated and no longer affects the behavior of SpoofChecker. Deprecated: ICU 58 Any case confusable mappings were removed from UTS 39; the corresponding ICU API was deprecated.
USPOOF_RESTRICTION_LEVEL | Check that an identifier is no looser than the specified RestrictionLevel. The default if uspoof_setRestrictionLevel is not called is HIGHLY_RESTRICTIVE. If USPOOF_AUX_INFO is enabled the actual restriction level of the identifier being tested will also be returned by uspoof_check(). See also URestrictionLevel uspoof_setRestrictionLevel USPOOF_AUX_INFO Stable: ICU 51
USPOOF_SINGLE_SCRIPT | Check that an identifier contains only characters from a single script (plus chars from the common and inherited scripts.) Applies to checks of a single identifier check only. Deprecated: ICU 51 Use RESTRICTION_LEVEL instead.
USPOOF_INVISIBLE | Check an identifier for the presence of invisible characters, such as zero-width spaces, or character sequences that are likely not to display, such as multiple occurrences of the same non-spacing mark. This check does not test the input string as a whole for conformance to any particular syntax for identifiers.
USPOOF_CHAR_LIMIT | Check that an identifier contains only characters from a specified set of acceptable characters. See uspoof_setAllowedChars and uspoof_setAllowedLocales. Note that a string that fails this check will also fail the USPOOF_RESTRICTION_LEVEL check.
USPOOF_MIXED_NUMBERS | Check that an identifier does not mix numbers from different numbering systems. For more information, see UTS 39 section 5.3. Stable: ICU 51
USPOOF_HIDDEN_OVERLAY | Check that an identifier does not have a combining character following a character in which that combining character would be hidden; for example 'i' followed by a U+0307 combining dot. More specifically, the following characters are forbidden from preceding a U+0307: Those with the Soft_Dotted Unicode property (which includes 'i' and 'j') Latin lowercase letter 'l' Dotless 'i' and 'j' ('ı' and 'ȷ', U+0131 and U+0237) Any character whose confusable prototype ends with such a character (Soft_Dotted, 'l', 'ı', or 'ȷ') In addition, combining characters are allowed between the above characters and U+0307 except those with combining class 0 or combining class "Above" (230, same class as U+0307). This list and the number of combing characters considered by this check may grow over time. Stable: ICU 62
USPOOF_ALL_CHECKS | Enable all spoof checks. Stable: ICU 4.6
USPOOF_AUX_INFO | Enable the return of auxiliary (non-error) information in the upper bits of the check results value. If this "check" is not enabled, the results of uspoof_check will be zero when an identifier passes all of the enabled checks. If this "check" is enabled, (uspoof_check() & USPOOF_ALL_CHECKS) will be zero when an identifier passes all checks. Stable: ICU 51

|  | int32_t | length1,
|  | const UChar * | id2,
|  | int32_t | length2,
|  | UErrorCode * | status
| ) |  |

Check the whether two specified strings are visually confusable.

If the strings are confusable, the return value will be nonzero, as long as USPOOF_CONFUSABLE was enabled in uspoof_setChecks().

The bits in the return value correspond to flags for each of the classes of confusables applicable to the two input strings. According to UTS 39 section 4, the possible flags are:

- USPOOF_SINGLE_SCRIPT_CONFUSABLE
- USPOOF_MIXED_SCRIPT_CONFUSABLE
- USPOOF_WHOLE_SCRIPT_CONFUSABLE

If one or more of the above flags were not listed in uspoof_setChecks(), this function will never report that class of confusable. The check USPOOF_CONFUSABLE enables all three flags.

Parameters

  sc | The USpoofChecker
  id1 | The first of the two identifiers to be compared for confusability. The strings are in UTF-16 format.
  length1 | the length of the first identifier, expressed in 16 bit UTF-16 code units, or -1 if the string is nul terminated.
  id2 | The second of the two identifiers to be compared for confusability. The identifiers are in UTF-16 format.
  length2 | The length of the second identifiers, expressed in 16 bit UTF-16 code units, or -1 if the string is nul terminated.
  status | The error code, set if an error occurred while attempting to perform the check. Confusability of the identifiers is not reported here, but through this function's return value.

Returns
  An integer value with bit(s) set corresponding to the type of confusability found, as defined by enum USpoofChecks. Zero is returned if the identifiers are not confusable.

Get the "skeleton" for an identifier.

Skeletons are a transformation of the input identifier; Two identifiers are confusable if their skeletons are identical. See Unicode UAX #39 for additional information.

Using skeletons directly makes it possible to quickly check whether an identifier is confusable with any of some large set of existing identifiers, by creating an efficiently searchable collection of the skeletons.

Parameters

  sc | The USpoofChecker
  type | Deprecated in ICU 58. You may pass any number. Originally, controlled which of the Unicode confusable data tables to use.
  id | The input identifier whose skeleton will be computed.
  length | The length of the input identifier, expressed in 16 bit UTF-16 code units, or -1 if the string is zero terminated.
  dest | The output buffer, to receive the skeleton string.
  destCapacity | The length of the output buffer, in 16 bit units. The destCapacity may be zero, in which case the function will return the actual length of the skeleton.
  status | The error code, set if an error occurred while attempting to perform the check.

Returns
  The length of the skeleton string. The returned length is always that of the complete skeleton, even when the supplied buffer is too small (or of zero length)

Skeletons are a transformation of the input identifier; Two identifiers are confusable if their skeletons are identical. See Unicode UAX #39 for additional information.

Using skeletons directly makes it possible to quickly check whether an identifier is confusable with any of some large set of existing identifiers, by creating an efficiently searchable collection of the skeletons.

Parameters

  sc | The USpoofChecker.
  type | Deprecated in ICU 58. You may pass any number. Originally, controlled which of the Unicode confusable data tables to use.
  id | The input identifier whose skeleton will be computed.
  dest | The output identifier, to receive the skeleton string.
  status | The error code, set if an error occurred while attempting to perform the check.

Returns
  A reference to the destination (skeleton) string.

Using skeletons directly makes it possible to quickly check whether an identifier is confusable with any of some large set of existing identifiers, by creating an efficiently searchable collection of the skeletons.

Parameters

  sc | The USpoofChecker
  type | Deprecated in ICU 58. You may pass any number. Originally, controlled which of the Unicode confusable data tables to use.
  id | The UTF-8 format identifier whose skeleton will be computed.
  length | The length of the input string, in bytes, or -1 if the string is zero terminated.
  dest | The output buffer, to receive the skeleton string.
  destCapacity | The length of the output buffer, in bytes. The destCapacity may be zero, in which case the function will return the actual length of the skeleton.
  status | The error code, set if an error occurred while attempting to perform the check. Possible Errors include U_INVALID_CHAR_FOUND for invalid UTF-8 sequences, and U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR if the destination buffer is too small to hold the complete skeleton.

Returns
  The length of the skeleton string, in bytes. The returned length is always that of the complete skeleton, even when the supplied buffer is too small (or of zero length)

## ◆ uspoof_setAllowedChars()

U_CAPI void U_EXPORT2 uspoof_setAllowedChars | ( | USpoofChecker * | sc,
|  | const USet * | chars,
|  | UErrorCode * | status
| ) |  |

Limit the acceptable characters to those specified by a Unicode Set.

Any previously specified character limit is is replaced by the new settings. This includes limits on characters that were set with the uspoof_setAllowedLocales() function.

The USPOOF_CHAR_LIMIT test is automatically enabled for this USpoofChecker by this function.

Parameters

  sc | The USpoofChecker
  chars | A Unicode Set containing the list of characters that are permitted. Ownership of the set remains with the caller. The incoming set is cloned by this function, so there are no restrictions on modifying or deleting the USet after calling this function.
  status | The error code, set if this function encounters a problem.

Stable:
  ICU 4.2

## ◆ uspoof_setAllowedLocales()

U_CAPI void U_EXPORT2 uspoof_setAllowedLocales | ( | USpoofChecker * | sc,
|  | const char * | localesList,
|  | UErrorCode * | status
| ) |  |

Limit characters that are acceptable in identifiers being checked to those normally used with the languages associated with the specified locales.

Any previously specified list of locales is replaced by the new settings.

A set of languages is determined from the locale(s), and from those a set of acceptable Unicode scripts is determined. Characters from this set of scripts, along with characters from the "common" and "inherited" Unicode Script categories will be permitted.

Supplying an empty string removes all restrictions; characters from any script will be allowed.

The USPOOF_CHAR_LIMIT test is automatically enabled for this USpoofChecker when calling this function with a non-empty list of locales.

The Unicode Set of characters that will be allowed is accessible via the uspoof_getAllowedChars() function. uspoof_setAllowedLocales() will replace any previously applied set of allowed characters.

Adjustments, such as additions or deletions of certain classes of characters, can be made to the result of uspoof_setAllowedLocales() by fetching the resulting set with uspoof_getAllowedChars(), manipulating it with the Unicode Set API, then resetting the spoof detectors limits with uspoof_setAllowedChars().

Parameters

  sc | The USpoofChecker
  localesList | A list list of locales, from which the language and associated script are extracted. The locales are comma-separated if there is more than one. White space may not appear within an individual locale, but is ignored otherwise. The locales are syntactically like those from the HTTP Accept-Language header. If the localesList is empty, no restrictions will be placed on the allowed characters.
  status | The error code, set if this function encounters a problem.

Stable:
  ICU 4.2

## ◆ uspoof_setAllowedUnicodeSet()

U_NAMESPACE_END U_CAPI void U_EXPORT2 uspoof_setAllowedUnicodeSet | ( | USpoofChecker * | sc,
|  | const icu::UnicodeSet * | chars,
|  | UErrorCode * | status
| ) |  |

Limit the acceptable characters to those specified by a Unicode Set.

Any previously specified character limit is is replaced by the new settings. This includes limits on characters that were set with the uspoof_setAllowedLocales() function.

The USPOOF_CHAR_LIMIT test is automatically enabled for this USoofChecker by this function.

Parameters

  sc | The USpoofChecker
  chars | A Unicode Set containing the list of characters that are permitted. Ownership of the set remains with the caller. The incoming set is cloned by this function, so there are no restrictions on modifying or deleting the UnicodeSet after calling this function.
  status | The error code, set if this function encounters a problem.

## ◆ uspoof_setChecks()

U_CAPI void U_EXPORT2 uspoof_setChecks | ( | USpoofChecker * | sc,
|  | int32_t | checks,
|  | UErrorCode * | status
| ) |  |

Specify the bitmask of checks that will be performed by uspoof_check.

Calling this method overwrites any checks that may have already been enabled. By default, all checks are enabled.

To enable specific checks and disable all others, OR together only the bit constants for the desired checks. For example, to fail strings containing characters outside of the set specified by uspoof_setAllowedChars and also strings that contain digits from mixed numbering systems:

    uspoof_setChecks(USPOOF_CHAR_LIMIT | USPOOF_MIXED_NUMBERS);

To disable specific checks and enable all others, start with ALL_CHECKS and "AND away" the not-desired checks. For example, if you are not planning to use the uspoof_areConfusable functionality, it is good practice to disable the CONFUSABLE check:

    uspoof_setChecks(USPOOF_ALL_CHECKS & ~USPOOF_CONFUSABLE);

Note that methods such as uspoof_setAllowedChars, uspoof_setAllowedLocales, and uspoof_setRestrictionLevel will enable certain checks when called. Those methods will OR the check they enable onto the existing bitmask specified by this method. For more details, see the documentation of those methods.

Parameters

  sc | The USpoofChecker
  checks | The set of checks that this spoof checker will perform. The value is a bit set, obtained by OR-ing together values from enum USpoofChecks.
  status | The error code, set if this function encounters a problem.

Stable:
  ICU 4.2

## ◆ uspoof_setRestrictionLevel()

U_CAPI void U_EXPORT2 uspoof_setRestrictionLevel | ( | USpoofChecker * | sc,
|  | URestrictionLevel | restrictionLevel
| ) |  |

Set the loosest restriction level allowed for strings.

The default if this is not called is USPOOF_HIGHLY_RESTRICTIVE. Calling this method enables the USPOOF_RESTRICTION_LEVEL and USPOOF_MIXED_NUMBERS checks, corresponding to Sections 5.1 and 5.2 of UTS 39. To customize which checks are to be performed by uspoof_check, see uspoof_setChecks.

Parameters

  sc | The USpoofChecker
  restrictionLevel | The loosest restriction level allowed.
